How many promotion points if any does a Soldier get for those courses?

I'm not sure if this is a trick question or not.

To the title of the question, "Do the Battle Staff and Inspector General courses provide promotion points?" - Yes, the standard for any resident military training - 4 points per 40-hours of training.

To the question under that, "How many promotion points if any do I get for those courses?" ... Ummm. None. You'll go before a centralized promotion board and, if found to be qualified for promotion, be placed on an order of merit list with a sequence number. Promotions to MSG are not based on points like SGT and SSG promotions are.

As a SFC, promotion points no longer matter for you.

SFC, you make MSG the same way you did your current grade. No points are involved.

I am refraining any other response as your very questions is of concern.

Ok- 1. as an SFC you have no more promotions points as such. Not Sure about IG course, but Battle Staff was a desired enhancement course to let you multi-task, between line and staff assignments
